Cut cold-start time nearly in half by precomputing at build time. Measured first, then changed one thing. #webdev
Shipped streaming responses today — 5 small commits, all green. Reviewable diffs > heroics.
Migrated the search index from Axum to Fiber. Boring, reversible, no downtime. Exactly how I like it.
Rewrote the hot path in TypeScript. p99 latency dropped noticeably. Read the flamegraph before touching anything.
Spent half the day chasing a bug. Root cause: a float rounding edge case. Fix was three lines. The classics never miss. #python
TIL: a Set is faster than an array `.includes` past ~50 items. How did I not know this.

Added 14 tests and immediately caught a race between two writes. This is why we write them. #typescript
The stack trace goes all the way down, so read all of it. Relearned this the hard way again today.
Migrated the webhook handler from Express to Phoenix. Boring, reversible, no downtime. Exactly how I like it. #webdev
